Greetings,

Does anyone use home security cameras at their rental properties? Do you prefer hardwired or battery powered?

@Michael Craig I use security cameras at my Vrbo. They are outside only. They are hardwired. I don't want to deal with changing batteries. My cameras are POE (power over Ethernet) so one Ethernet cable is used for signal and power to the cameras. If you only pay $300 for a wireless camera system at Sam's then you are getting what you paid for.

I use higher end Digital Watchdog cameras and software and I love this system.
